Man, if only there was some kind of like, party representative, whose job is to be the face of the party and their policies in order to motivate people to vote for that party. Oh well, might as well cry about Trump a million times over instead of thinking about how the party could improve it's own odds of getting elected.

It's fine, go and vote for rfk jr. 👍

I'm used to the left in this country being a bunch of ineffectual whiny losers awaiting their pie in the sky candidate while some vile Republican monstrosity wins a term in the oval office by promising to fart on every Mexican puppy or whatever.

If Republicans wins, doesn't that make you a "ineffectual whiny loser" too?

Nah, I don't pretend every 4-8 years to be some awesome "leftist" organizer that's going to take down capitalism.

You don't need to if you just want better options for your presidential candidates.

Yeah I voted for a better one when they had an actual primary in 2020. It turns out that primary is over.

All the "leftists" must've sat that one out (as they often do because they're whiny babies that don't reliably participate in the political process yet want all of their dreams to come true), because they always tell me that we're an overwhelmingly progressive country yet they lost to Biden. 🤷
